Desert sands

I enter the whole

of nothingness

haiku 173 - croped

The haiku I chose for this week’s music challenge was written by Kala Ramesh, who since 2005 has explored various genres of poetry, including haiku, tanka, senryu, haibun and renku, and has been published in leading e-zines and anthologies. Kala currently teaches a course, The Heart of Haiku, at the Symbiosis International School in India.
